Over 530 sequels released since 2000 have brought in $74.3 billion at the domestic box office, but it doesn’t mean Hollywood should depend on them.

These are still blockbusters. A blockbuster is essentially an expensive film that makes up for being expensive by catering to a wide audience and become very popular to become profitable. That includes a lot of risk, so making sequels to blockbusters using the blockbuster model makes perfect sense as it reduces risk.
